A bowl from Chipotle Mexican Grill is basically a burrito without the tortilla. You build it with layers like:
- Base: white rice, brown rice, lettuce, or no base
- Beans: black or pinto
- Protein: chicken, steak, barbacoa, carnitas, sofritas, or fajita veggies
-
Toppings:
- fajita veggies
- fresh tomato salsa
- roasted chili-corn salsa
- tomatillo green/red salsa
- sour cream
- cheese
- guacamole
- lettuce
- queso blanco
A common bowl might be:
White rice + black beans + chicken + fajita veggies + corn salsa + cheese + guac + lettuce
Here is how I marinated the chicken:
I used 80 pounds of chicken thighs
I marinated in 3 cups of mayo
1 can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce(l blend it in a blender with the mayo and some water)
Season with taco seasonin, salt, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, Johnny seasoning, and garlic salt.
and squeeze in to limes.
Flatten the chicken out onto sheet pans and bake on 450 for 20 minutes or till the chicken reaches temperature of 165.
